doyleIn honour of Worldwide Journal Commenting Day, and since I've been updating my friendslist, I thought I'd do a post for people who don't normally comment to say hi. Also for people who do normally comment. So, pretty much just for everybpdy, really.
Getting To Know You...
If you're wondering who I am - that's okay, I don't recognise a lot of the names on my flist either, hence this post - I go by Doyle, I'm 22, I'm an astrophysics student and I live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I'm most active in the Buffyverse fandom, which I can never call Buffy/Angel without getting it mixed up with the pairing, and most of my posts are me blathering on about some aspect of that. The rest of the posts are usually me whinging about an assignment/thesis/presentation/nebula spectrum, though most of those are locked, when I remember. I obsessively-compulsively organize things, so if you're looking for communities, fic recs, whatever, I'll try my best to help you find it or point you to someone who can.
Current favourite pairings and characters are Dawn, Nina, Angel/Spike, Buffy, Riley, Kennedy, Gunn, and I've been thinking a lot about Eve. This changes a lot. I think every character has been my favourite at some point, and it all seems to run nicely on a subconscious rota system. Non-Buffyverse things I watch: Lost, Desperate Housewives, Father Ted, Black Books, Teachers, The Simpsons, Futurama, random bits of anime and Farscape and Battlestar Galactica when my housemates are watching it.
I'm more or less stealing this from what I can remember of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wisteria_'s introduce-yourself posts. All the questions below are optional and for people who, like me, are more comfortable filling in forms or ticking ticky boxes. If you just want to say hi, that'd be good too.
Name: (not your real name, unless you really want to)
Age/location:
Fandom(s):
Favourite pairings/characters/bulletproof fic kinks/anything else you want to tell me:
Any burning questions? (Either to me or about fandom in general, since JennyO's post on newbies made me wonder how many people are wondering what the hell a BNF is or how to make thecommunity symbol or whatever)
Anything else:

on 2005-02-01 02:34 am (UTC)Age/location: 30/Toronto
Fandom(s): BtVS & AtS, Dead Enders, Italian Job, EngRenSlash,
Favourite pairings/characters/bulletproof fic kinks/anything else you want to tell me: I like Giles, Oz, Gunn, Wesley, Nina, Veruca, Buffy, Dawn, Faith, sometimes Xander, and combinations thereof. My kinks are for metaphors that work, insight, lapsex, bibliophiles, biting and intergenerational relationships. Also sometimes wolfdick.
Any burning questions? How'd your presentation go? And when are you coming to visit?

on 2005-02-01 03:43 am (UTC)The presentation proper is on Thursday, but I have to meet my supervisor to discuss it in 6 hours (eep). I've fallen into my odd sleep pattern of sleeping for 2 or 3 hours at different times of the day and then staying up all night. (This is why I'm glad my lectures this semester are late afternoon, and why I could never work a 9-5 job. My brain doesn't start to work properly till 2am.)
And when are you coming to visit?
Everyone must come to visit me! And drink Guinness, which is foul but traditional.

I will come visit when I have a Canadian passport, yes ma'am. So it's your turn first, see.
